Nowadays I just keep reading, if possible without clicking anything. Sometimes all I can get is 200 pixels of vertical reading space, but heck, fuck your cookie

Sometimes I can’t scroll and just close the site
- hans1729 5y agoIf you can't scroll, you can usually permanently block the overlay with either uBlock origin or ad guard, depending on your browser. Reload the page - cookie banner will never appear again, overlay will never appear again, website is vanilla and functional without ever consenting to anything. Of course having to do this is hostile, but at least it's permanent.
- rantallion 5y agoIt may surprise you to hear that they set cookies (perhaps only for the 'essential' ones) before you grant consent. Check the dev tools of your browser next time you get one of those banners and see what's already lurking.
